ANIMATION+ ACQUIRES WORLDWIDE FAST RIGHTS TO ADULT SWIM’S PSI COPS

Platform Announces Free Premiere of Popular Adult Animated Comedy

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, August 29, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Animation+, the premier FAST channel for adult animated comedy, has announced the Worldwide FAST (free ad-supported streaming television) premiere of Psi Cops, the absurdist cult comedy from Adult Swim. The series will be freely accessible for the first time on TVs and streaming services — through Animation+ beginning tomorrow, Friday August 29th.

Psi Cops first available episodes will premiere this Friday, 8/29 at 7PM EDT / 10PM PDT on Animation+, available across major FAST platforms including Samsung TV Plus, The Roku Channel, Vizio WatchFree+, Hisense Vidaa, and Plex. Click HERE to view the Psi Cops trailer, produced by Animation+.

Created by and starring Bart Batchelor and Chris Nielsen, Psi Cops is a deadpan, paranormal workplace comedy following Al and Damon, two low-level government agents investigating bizarre supernatural occurrences with complete incompetence. The series originally premiered on Adult Swim Canada and has since earned a 90% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, becoming a cult favorite for fans of surreal, character-driven animation.

Batchelor and Nielsen serve as executive producers, alongside Robert Kirkman (“Invincible,” The Walking Dead,”) Chris Ferguson (“Little Fish”), Brian Kavanaugh-Jones (“The Bikeriders”), David Alpert (“Invincible” “The Walking Dead”), and Catherine Winder (“Invincible,” “Star Wars: The Clone Wars”). The series was commissioned by Corus Entertainment, produced by Wind Sun Sky Entertainment and Oddfellows Labs, and is distributed by Skybound Galactic, a division of Skybound Entertainment.

"Psi Cops is brilliantly absurd and exactly the type of series we built Animation+ to showcase. We're really thrilled to introduce it to viewers who might never have discovered it otherwise..” – Niall Madden, Animation+’s Head of Content and Programming.

This acquisition/announcement ladders up under Animation+’s broader mission, answering a strong consumer desire for the thoughtful curation of boundary-pushing adult animated content, just a simple click away and accessible to as many people as possible.
According to Verified Market Research’s analysis the adult animation market is currently valued at $440 billion and is projected to reach $588 billion by 2031. US demand for adult animated content has increased 151.6% since 2020 with demand roughly three times higher than the growth in supply. This indicates a significant rise in audience interest for this specific programming, which is often more cost-effective to produce. Adult animation series are poised to become increasingly valuable to entertainment companies and IP owners over time.
